Title: Your car's fuel consumption soars? The senior sister found out these 8 "oil thieves" and learned three tricks to save half of the money!

Opening: Are you raising an "oil tiger" in the fuel tank?
Dear riders, the recent rise in oil prices makes people want to "jump up"? It is obviously the same car, but someone else runs 500 kilometers with a box of gas, but your car can only run 400 kilometers? Today, the senior sister will take everyone to lift the hood of development, find out the 8 "oil thieves", and teach three tips for fuel-saving without spending a penny!

1. Hardware: These 8 parts are secretly drinking your 95
1. Three-way Catalyst: Environmental Defense Forces to "Fuel Consumption Assassin"
If this thing is blocked, the engine will be like running wearing an N95 mask - you can't breathe! The exhaust gas cannot be discharged, so the ECU (driving computer) can only spray more fuel to find replenishment. Test tips: When the cold car starts, smell the exhaust gas and smell the rotten eggs, check it out quickly!
2. Carbon deposited "three-piece set" (throttle valve/fuel injector/spark plug)
Carbon deposits can make the fuel consumption of V8s in 10-year-old cars! The spark plug ignition delay is 0.1 seconds, and fuel consumption can increase by 20%. The senior sister suggested: cleaning with walnut sand every 20,000 kilometers is much more reliable than making a drip bottle.
3. Oxygen sensor poisoning
The front oxygen sensor fails = ECU becomes "blind", the air-fuel ratio is randomly adjusted, and the more oil sprayed is enough to buy a cup of milk tea! Warning signal: The exhaust pipe is as dark as a coal boss’s suit.
4. The air filter element becomes a "rag"
The blocked filter element makes the engine "deficient in oxygen", and the ECU can only add concentrated fuel injection. Note to Northern riders: After the sandstorm days, you have to change the filter element if it increases by 10 grams!
5. The oil becomes "asphalt"
Using the wrong label is like asking Liu Xiang to run in high heels! 5W-40 for Japanese cars? The fuel consumption directly "smoke out". Remember: 0W-20 is a Japanese and Korean mother, and the Germans are 5W-30.
6. Tire "lame"
Tire pressure below the standard value 0.5bar = burn 5% more oil. The four-wheel positioning deviation is 1 degree, the tire is ground into a "blade", and the fuel consumption increases by another 8%. Self-test trick: use coins to measure the tread pattern every month, and you have to change the foot when you grind it with the word "country"!
7. Brake sub-pump "locked"
Drag the brakes and drive = step on the brakes while refueling, the fuel consumption will increase by 30%! Life-saving test: After running 10 kilometers, touching the wheel hub, it will be a hit.
8. The water temperature sensor is "dead"
The false alarm of low temperature caused the ECU to inject fuel frantically, and the fuel consumption was 40% higher than normal. As soon as the fault code P0115-P0118 is released, change it quickly!

2. Driving: Your right foot is the "oil tiger"
1. Step on the accelerator = send a banner to the gas station
Accelerate and burn 12% of the oil at one time, so that the amount of carbon deposits can be enough to lay the track. Senior sister suggests: start with a sloth and learn from a sloth at the traffic light, and press the speed by 2,000 rpm.
2. The "critical point" of window opening/air conditioning
The window is opened at 80km/h ≈ a reverse parachute is installed on the roof! Fuel-saving formula: Open windows in the city to save air conditioners, and close windows at highways to save fuel costs.
3. Idle speed for 3 minutes = 1.5L of white oil
Do you play with your phone when you are in a traffic jam and don’t turn off the engine? The fuel tank is "blooding"! New energy car owners laughed: Turn on the pure electric mode, and the air conditioner will be blown away without any mistakes.

3. Maintenance: Save fuel = Save money + worry-free
1. Come on the Golden Rule
Stop when you add it and jump! Add 50L more = 35kg more to the fat man run the whole journey. Avoid refueling at noon, the temperature is 1℃ per liter, and the gasoline expands by 0.12%!
2. "2-second prediction" brake method
The brake lights in the front car are on, and the accelerator is loose and slides lightly for 2 seconds, which saves 15% fuel. This trick works especially well in Chongqing Shancheng!
3. "Economic Speed" Cruise
The sedan is 60-80km/h and the SUV is 70-90km/h, which saves fuel by 40% compared to the extreme speed. With a cruise control speed, your feet are not tired and you can save fuel.

4. Controversial topic: Is fuel-saving modification an IQ tax?
Nowadays, the fuel-saving card and magnetized fuel-saving device are popular in Taobao. The senior sister can only say: "This car is interesting" - it's a pity that it's the opposite! The principle is comparable to turning water into oil, so it is better to save money to buy a cup of milk tea. The only things that are really useful are tire pressure monitoring and OBD driving computers, and the data will not be scammers!

5. Future prospects: Is hybrid technology really good?
Although talking about new energy now seems to be talking about the oil price of "the sky has collapsed", the fuel consumption of plug-in hybrid vehicles is 4L/100km. But will the battery become a new "oil tiger" after it is decayed? Let me tell you after my senior sister has been taking the test for 3 years!

Ending: Senior sister's soul torture
Dear riders, are you willing to save 300 yuan in gas every month, or continue to raise these 8 "oil thieves"? The comment section shows your fuel-saving tips and like the highest tire pressure monitor!
I wish you all your wishes come true, good health, gain nothing for work, and enjoy the success!
(The senior sister talks about the car, and the next issue reveals the secret: "The more expensive the engine oil, the better? 90% of car owners have stepped on these pitfalls!")
